Signal frequencies or what? Please help!!!

Hi folks, I know this is really off the topics but I am confused about the signals and frequencies. I am from pakistan using Telenor as my carrier and in my office signal strength fluctuate between -70 to -90 and I get distortion and breaker voice (same goes with my colleagues who are using same Telenor number series). Strange thing I noticed today in my office while I used a clients cellphone with Telenor sim and voice quality was great.

Can anybody let me know what could be the difference. Is there something at the end of carrier?

the -70 to -90 numbers you see are decibel milliwatt numbers that, in a nutshell, indicate signal strength. The closer you get to zero, the better the phone's signal (so -70 is better than -90.)

-70 isn't that bad a signal for voice calls, but is your phone holding it steadily or does it fluctuate a lot? Also, have you tried dropping your phone down to 2G, seeing if that helps with consistency of signal?

the -70 to -90 numbers you see are decibel milliwatt numbers that, in a nutshell, indicate signal strength.

How can I view it in numerical format?

Which device was the client using?

When I was on Ufone, I noticed bad reception in certain areas - voice-cutting-off bad. On Zong (Q5), signal fluctuates on 3G and 4G but is stable on 2G. Another user reported stable signal strength on Warid regardless of network mode (Passport).

Thanks Raino for Reply and I normally use 2G and turn on 3G when I need faster speed. But I am really worried as my company is having 55 numbers account with Telenor and majority of people complaining while I used a few clients Telenor number in the same premises where I use my cellphone but there is a huge difference between both numbers voice quality and signal.

He was using some small set and I guess it was Samsung Star

I know Warid has better signals as they have limited clients
